Today, a Thursday

I don't know why I'm feeling and doing so well but I seem to be. I'll take it! My life is good and I am constantly being reminded of that.

How funny--Toni, our admin asst just came back to tell me how she prayed for me this morning when she read in her Lenten devotion book about praying for someone who does things for others. She thought of me. So she tells me that if I feel uplifted today that might be why. How sweet! I told her I had just typed this sentnce that I feel good and don't know why. My God is good to me.

Today I am grateful for:
1. That I have a God in my life
2. the Alanon program
3. My sponsor Deanna
4. Her sponsor and her sponsor and her sponsor
5 the women I am honored to sponsor
6 The Steps, especially since finished Step 9
7 Fellowship of this program all over the country & Australia!
8 my son Nik and grandaughter Helena
9 my family--brothers, sisters and sister in laws who are really sisters
10 long time friendships
11 the internet, email and blogs
12 being able to find things to be grateful about

I didn't mention the gift of my son Lonny who taught me all kinds of lessons, the greatest of those that love is not ever enuff.

and of course I forgot to mention my husband who finds a way to live with me peacefully--even when i am not! His humor and love keep me in WV. I am however grateful for him, not yet WV. Will I ever bloom here where I am planted? And I really do appreciate not only the long time friendships I have somehow sustained for all these years but some new ones just begun--I am so blessed.

Someone remind I can feel this good when I start the self pity thing again, k?
